The Southampton goalkeeper has been at the centre of speculation this week after long-term Scotland No.1 Allan McGregor decided to retire from international football, leaving a crucial spot open in Alex McLeish’s side.

Gunn has been in outstanding form in the Premier League this season, and has already represented England at Under-21 level, but qualifies for Scotland due to his dad, Bryan.

England had the chance to call Gunn up earlier today for the Euro2020 qualifiers against Czech Republic and Montenegro, but Southgate instead decided to continue with Jordan Pickford, Tom Heaton and Jack Butland – even though he’s been playing in the Championship this season.

When asked about players who could be poached by other countries, Southgate was looking at things in a pretty philosophical manner:

England manager Gareth Southgate says #MUFC goalkeeper Dean Henderson – currently on loan at #SUFC – is in his thoughts along with #SaintsFC's Angus Gunn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Southgate interesting on not capping Gunn, Wan-Bissaka to guarantee them for England: "Aaron Wan-Bissaka is playing very well, and really pushing to be in our squad. I could pick players give them a cap and stop them from playing somewhere else but I don't think that is right."
